Hydro Floss Oral Irrigator

Cheap Hydro Floss Oral Irrigator Review




HI, WANTED TO WRITE MY VERY 1ST REVIEW. I HOPE THE NEGATIVE PRESS DOESN'T TURN OUT TO BE BASED ON "NEWER TECH" OR SOMETHING BECAUSE I WILL BE SO DISSAPOINTED.. I BOUGHT THIS ABOUT 12 YEARS AGO AND IT HELPED BEYOND MEASURE MY GENETIC GUM DISEASE. I AM THE ONLY FAMILY MEMBER WHO HAS MANAGED TO KEEP A LARGE PORTION OF MY NATURAL TEETH. THAT IS SAYING SOMETHING BECAUSE I AM 58 AND HAVE BEEN SUFFERING WITH THIS DIFFICULTY SINCE 19.
HAVING SAID THAT I HAVE ALSO SPENT A BOAT LOAD OF MONEY FOR DENTAL CARE THROUGH OUT THE YEARS. MY BEST WEAPON HAS BEEN THE HYDROFLOSSER AND SONICARE.
THE ONLY REASON I AM PURCHASING A NEW ONE IS BECAUSE I AM BUILDING AND MOST OF MY PERSONAL ITEMS SAT IN STORAGE TOO LONG. WHEN I FOUND MY OLD ONE I WAS THIRILLED AS I HAVE LET A LOT OF WORK AND $ GO DOWN THE TUBES BY NOT USING THIS ARSENAL.
DAY ONE...I COULD NOT BELIEVE THIS EVERY GOT TO STORAGE. SADLY, DUE TO THAT ENVIRONMENT THE HOSE BECAME BRITTLE SO DAY TWO I HAD A RAIN SHOWER OF LEAKS :)
FOR THOSE WHO HAVE SAID IT IS A BIT DIFFICULT TO SEAT THIS MAY IS SLIGHTLY TRUE BUT A FEW SECONDS OF FIDDLING AROUND IS WHY I STILL HAVE TEETH AND MY OTHER FAMILY MEMEBERS DON'T. (SOME CHOSE TO JUST PULL ALL AT A VERY YOUNG AGE AND I THINK THERE IS MUCH REGRET.)
I HAVE USED THE H20PIK AND IT SEEMS A GOOD PRODUCT BUT FOR ME THE HYDROFOSSER IS BY FAR MORE EFFECTIVE.
I CALLED DENTAL MART (BECAUSE I HAVE PURCHASED MUCH FROM THEM BEFORE) AND HE AGREES W/ME.
ONLY ONE GIRL'S OPINION. BEST WISHES IN CARING FOR YOUR TEETH...THESE TECHNIQUES WILL SAVE YOU A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF MONEY AND TEETH IN THE LONG RUN...MY DENTIST CAN ATTEST TO THAT IN MY MOUTH.

Reach Dental Floss, Waxed, Mint 200 yds

Cheap Reach Dental Floss, Waxed, Mint 200 yds Review




The Johnson & Johnson Reach Dental Floss is obviously a much stronger product than most other brands available. My teeth are tightly-spaced, so I often have trouble getting the dental floss to go in between the spaces. When testing this product, I noticed that the floss was easy to glide through the tight spaces. And the floss didn't shred at all like some of the other brands do. Of course, the minty taste was appealing, unlike some that have a waxy taste. Great product!

Waterpik Power Flosser

Cheap Waterpik Power Flosser Review




In my experience, this power flosser works as well as the old Braun Oral B model that had an extending flosser element, and it works better than the WaterPik rechargeable model that was apparently discontinued.

For some reason, WaterPik rechargeable products don't seem to work very well. Though I haven't tried their most recent portable oral irrigator, the previous model had battery problems, as did their power flosser.

With this power flosser, I am using a NiMH AA rechargeable battery. It holds a charge for a number of weeks -- better than the WaterPik rechargeable -- and seems comparable in power and effectiveness to that model.

The whitening tips seem to help battle teeth stains as well.

In sum, this is the best power flosser on the market at this time, as far as I know, and I recommend it to anyone with problem gums.

Cheap 180 Travel Floss Packets - Mint Review




This is a fantastic product. It's so convenient and easy to use. I like it because, as an active adult, constantly on the go, I am able to slip an easy to use packet of Icedent in my pocket and be ready whenever I need to floss. I keep it at work, at home, in my gym bag, and always in my pocket. I really enjoy Icedent. I'm so glad someone finally came up with such a useful product.

Dental Waterjet Oral Irrigator by ProFloss

Cheap Dental Waterjet Oral Irrigator by ProFloss Review




I purchased this oral irrigator last month for my husband who has gone through many of the models that sit on your cabinet. When the last one broke, I began to look for a replacement. After searching many sites I found this one. The reviews were very positive and I prefer to buy from Amazon (don't believe they have ever disappointed me). My husband loves this irrigator and I like (love) the fact that it doesn't sit on my cabinet all the time. The white attachment is always there but really not a distraction. Highly recommend this product.

Cheap DenTek Dental Pik Ultra & Anti Fog Mirror - 1 ea Review




This product is great and does a good job between dental cleanings. I will stress professional dental cleanings are something you cannot achieve at home but this tool does a good job to reducing and cleaning your teeth. I particularly love the dental scaler because it does a great job at cleaning tartar build up. Follow the directions and you'll be happy with your clean teeth.

DenTek Sonic Pick, Colors may vary

Cheap DenTek Sonic Pick, Colors may vary Review




Because I have gum problems, I'm paying for four dental cleanings a year, so this is prudent. I'm used to sonic cleaning at the dentist's office, so it feels fine to me. I do it blind so the light superfluous for me, theoretically I could turn it sideways and do scaling, but I don't worry about that either. I just run it along the gum line, between my teeth and into the pockets in my gums. It's a good size and shape to get into the back my mouth. My dental hygenist says it's making a considerable difference, and I don't mind using it as much as I dislike flossing or using other types of toothpicks.

I'm always leaving it around the house, so I'm getting another. My son tried it and liked it, so I'm getting him one. You can clean it well enough to let someone else try it, but since gum germs are pretty fierce, we're not going to share it regularly. The dentist's office cleans theirs and uses it on the next patient, of course.

Natural Floss Picks (50 ct)

Cheap Natural Floss Picks (50 ct) Review




I have difficulty controlling regular floss, so picks help me keep up a daily flossing regimen. Unfortunately, I was never comfortable with the amount of plastic waste produced by throwing out picks every day. As such, I was delighted to find this earth-friendly product available in stores. You get to floss as much as you want with minimal impact on the environment, and the price is even very comparable to other picks.

The downside, as other reviewers mentioned, is the strength of the picks and smoothness of the floss. They are definitely not as smooth and sturdy as what you would get from plastics and polymers. You will almost inevitably have a few of them break on you, usually with the floss coming loose from the pick. Fortunately for me, I don't have this problem as often as some others claim. I'm sure each unique mouth has different needs, with some teeth being tighter together than others. I probably break one pick every 10 flossings or so. The quality also seems to vary a bit between packages. The overall failure rate seems low enough that I can deal with it as a trade off for an environmentally friendly product.

I would recommend anyone give these a try. It's only a couple dollars for 50, and if they don't work well enough with your teeth, just move on to something else.
